Hey Gang! Hope everyone had a great long Easter Weekend and enjoyed the great weather and hopefully some time with family and friends. And maybe a tiny bit of chocolate. Many people on this list are ramping up for Spring marathons along with getting in shape for races of other distances. When training […]
Hi Everyone! Some really great runs over the weekend: at Around the Bay we had Colette, Carol and Brianna who all ran solid 35.4K PB’s! As I said to some of them – awesome resilience and attitude with being able to “go with the flow and a positive attitude” with the ever changing (increasing!) […]
Hey Gang! First up, huge congrats to Cindy who ran the NYC Half on the weekend with a PB and breaking the 1:30 barrier! Great job. I’m loving the momentum of spring races. Keep ‘em coming – I might even jump into one soon! Coming up this weekend we have Around The Bay with […]
Hey Gang! Happy March Break to all! As such, I am on holiday so won’t be there for workout and not writing much of a post. Except to say, I am truly relishing the full detachment and break from my everyday routine and responsibilities, and am already feeling refreshed and ready to get back […]
Hi Everyone! First up, huge congrats to everyone who ran the Chilly Half!!! Sam F who PB’d! Ingrid who crushed it in a new age group! Bob who negative split! Amy, Shauna, Jason who executed smart, tough and solid training runs. And with that, the seal to spring races has been broken – bring […]
Hey All! Spring is in the air, and with that the scent of spring races is noticeable. Starting off this weekend with the Chilly Half. Some are racing it, some are training through, but it’s always a great way to “wake up” from winter and decide where we want to take our training for […]
Hi All, Hope you all had a relaxing long Family Day weekend. It actually felt like winter! Not sure about you guys, but I’ve actually been enjoying the cold and snow – it feels novel, unlike past Februarys where it’s had me beaten down by now. What I’ve been thinking about this week […]
Hey Everyone! Happy Valentine’s Day tomorrow for those who celebrate. And Happy eating chocolate day for those who celebrate that! As most of you have probably heard, the marathon world record holder, Kelvin Kiptum, died tragically in a car accident the other day, alongside his coach. Kiptum had recently run the world record […]
Hey Gang! Happy “feels like Spring”! The best thing about this weather is the footing. Some of my usual routes that are off-limits in winter are still available to me. I’ve been caught before in both Taylor Creek Park and the Moore Park Ravine where I’ve stubbornly maintained my route despite the ice, and […]
Hi Everyone! Anyone noticed the days getting a bit longer? I have. Or maybe I’m just waking up later – ha. Anyway, enjoy the springier-like temps while we have them and the ok footing. I’m sure we’ll vortex down again at least once more so take a breath and enjoy while you can. […]
